RACHEL RILEY opened up about welcoming a surprising “new addition” to the Riley family on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, as the pregnant presenter shared an adorable photo.

Rachel Riley, 33, gushed about some sweet new family members on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown this week as she revealed her brother has taken in two kittens. The star, who is expecting her first baby with husband Pasha Kovalev, 39, announced the arrival of the pets when host Jimmy Carr, 46, quizzed her about them on the Channel 4 programme. The comedian turned to his co-star and said: “Rachel, I believe you’ve welcomed some new additions to the Riley family. What have you got?” “My brother has got kittens, so I’ve now got kitten nephews,” the mathematics expert replied, as she beamed with delight.

“And I’ve got something now where it keeps track of all of them [passwords] and you have to enter your thumb fingerprint every single time you want to put a password in because the worst thing is if someone nicks your phone while you're on it and it’s unlocked already.

“Then they’ve got absolutely everything on you already.”

Rachel went on to inform the Countdown host if his phone was stolen, then the thief would gain access to all of his “naked shots”.
